About Me

My name is Jason and I'm a long time gamer. It started when I was a young lad and my family would have board game night. This grew into board gaming with my friends, the earliest ones I recall were OGRE and Car Wars by Steve Jackson Games. Gaming continued as I got older and I found myself immersed in RPG's, Dungeons and Dragons, Cyberpunk 2020 and Call of Cthulhu being a few of my favorites. During high school I was introduced to the Milton Bradley Gamemaster series. My friends and I spent hours playing Axis and Allies, Shogun, Fortress America and Conquest of the Empires. When I reached college all of my gaming stopped as I went off to school and it wasn't until years later that I got back into the hobby.

It all began again when I moved to the Washington DC area and discovered the DC Conscripts, an ASL (Advanced Squad Leader) club. I began to learn ASL and got back into board gaming. ASL got me started but I followed it up with Burning Blue, Flying Colors and many, many other games. Soon I was buying up all the old games that I used to play. Lately I have been playing games that are more accessible to non-gamers (read: my wife). With games that are a little less complex I have been able to get her playing. Yay for me!

I am a native Mainer that is currently residing in Waldorf MD. I work as a government contractor (me and everyone else in the greater DC area). I enjoy all kinds of music, but mostly rock or blues, movies and reading.

Football (or soccer) is another interest of mine, I follow both the English Premier League and Major League Soccer and can never watch enough games! Chelsea and D.C. United are my teams and I am always hoping for more silverware!
